Umar K.: In accordance with Internet Privacy and Harassment Act, I am to inform you that youre IP, location and ISP are being monitored and logged. This chat is recorded and forwarded to your ISPs anti-spam department. You will be receiving a notice from your ISP concerning your connection to this chat room detailing the contents of this chat. Your IP is also flagged to be used in any further investigations and can be sent to your local homeland security office.

 

 

 

it sounds like the average scripting... looks like the agent copied and pasted it in.

Na... Nothing Will happen. Next time in case, just have as much fun as you want at a local library's computer. What are they gonna do.. Ban Your IP? (not your comp), Inform your local police? (Only a few libraries keep record of whose on each computer at each time, and all their details) or something like that? :lol:

 

 

 

 

 

And to the ppl who say don't bother them with their job... Honestly it's probably the most fun they have all day.. Who the hell WANTS to work for a tech support. Hell I've even had teachers that enjoyed calling tech support and asking them random questions.. :lol: (I luv my teachers )

 

 

 

 

 

But ya... dont expect anything.. Worst I could see happening is them banning your IP (And if you proxy it next time, they don't have anything), Although if what you wrote about the conversation was all that was said, thats short, you hardly said anything, and that employee seriously has something stuck up their [wagon] to be that uptight.

People want to work for Tech Support because knowing computers inside and out is a skill you can take to the bank very quickly.

 

 

 

But yeah, they do sometimes get a good laugh from it.

My cousin was caught downloading torrented software. He got a letter in the mail informing him if he continued that his ISP would stop his service and he would be fined.

 

 

 

I doubt "harassment" is worse than grand larceny.

lol. my sister was obsessed with free music... we were all scared she would go to jail. :-#

 

 

 

keyword. was.

 

 

 

anyways, I work in tech support.. and it's fun wehn I get prank calls... it breaks the monotony.

 

 

 

*EDIT* however I still have to treat it as a real call.. incase they;re actually serious

Are you sure you have to treat EVERY call real?

 

 

 

Tech: Hello dell tech support, how may I be of service to you?

 

"Ya Um... My PC.. just like.. became alive... and now it's attacking my family"

 

Tech: Have you tried defragging it?

 

"What's defragging it going to do? It just !@#$ing killed my dog!"

 

Tech: Sir your computer can't kill people.

 

"ARE YOU KIDDING? ITS TRYING TO KILL ME!"

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'm pretty sure you can see where I'm going with this one.

yes. you still have to treat it as a serious call.. to an extent..

 

 

 

Sometimes if I get a prank call.. I'll relax enough to ask them [based on your example cause i'm not telling people what I do tech support for]

 

me:so.. what kind of gun is your comp holding?

 

idiot: a revolver

 

me: the good thing is that since the comp was manufactured by XXX, this means that the revolver is not compat with it.

 

idiot: it's holding a real revolver!

 

me: um...

 

idiot: oh! it shot me in the [gluteous maximus]

 

me: how come you're not screaming and fainting from pain?... nevermind, I don't think I want to know.

 

idiot:...

 

me: anyways, do you have any other questions for me concerning your comp?

 

idiot: yes [and starts blathering on and on... this was a 16 min call before I just hung up on them.. I really don't care about my stats.. and my ears were starting to hurt.. he also told me he was 4 years old.. to which i replied I was 3]

Oh no! You mentioned other people over the internet without their permission! SHAME ON YOU!!!

 

jk.
